Hair needs protein especially since hair itself is made from protein! So good quality protein foods are a must such as lean meat or vegetarian options such as nuts. Oily fish is a great superfood for hair as it is high in protein as well as being high in omega-3 fatty acids which are known to be beneficial for hair and scalp health. Vegetarian protein sources include eggs which are also high in biotin. A lack of biotin is a cause of brittle hair.

Vitamin C is also necessary for hair health as it enables collagen to be formed which is required by the hair follicles as well as the skin. An excellent source of vitamin C is bell peppers but there are also plenty of other sources including citrus fruits and Brussels sprouts. Vitamin C also improves the ability of the body to absorb iron from food. Iron is an important mineral for hair as it allows a nutrient-rich blood supply to feed the hair follicle. Low iron levels (known as anemia) can cause thinning of hair. Foods to eat that are rich in iron are red meat, lentils or leafy green vegetables. Also include zinc and selenium, which can be found in whole grains, for hair health
